Adenosylhomocysteinase (AHCY) Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit

Adenosylhomocysteinase (AHCY) Activity Fluorometric Assay Kitis available at Gentaur for Next week Delivery.

Only kit on the market to measure AHCY activity.

Description:

Adenosylhomocysteinase (AHCY) (EC 3.3.1.1) or S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH); is an enzyme that catalyzes the reversible hydrolysis of S-Adenosyl Homocysteine (SAH) to adenosine and homocysteine. AHCY regulates the intracellular SAH concentration which in turn regulates S-adenosyl methionine (SAM)-dependent methyltransferases. Down-regulation of AHCY has been associated with certain forms of cancer and Huntington’s disease, while in Wilson’s disease; the enzyme is inhibited by the accumulated copper. Mutations in the AHCY gene cause SAHH deficiency disease. BioVision’s AHCY Activity Assay kit can kinetically measure AHCY activity by detecting adenosine generation resulting from the hydrolysis of SAH. Adenosine is detected via a multi-step reaction, resulting in the generation of an intermediate that reacts with the OxiRed™ Probe. The fluorescent product is measured at Ex/Em = 535/587 nm. Limit of quantification (L.O.Q) is 1 µU recombinant human AHCY.

Applications: Detection of AHCY activity

Sample Typ:e • Purified recombinant protein • Cell and tissue lysate

Alternate Name: S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH) Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit, S-adenosylhomocysteine synthase Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit, Adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase Activity Fluorometric Assay Kit

Features and Benefits:

• Rapid, simple & convenient • The assay can detect AHCY activity as low as 1 µU recombinant human AHCY.
